KiwiGal77 Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 So yesterday I got some help and we set up my new 150L tank :happy2: Looking a bit bare at the moment, but have some more plants on the way and things need to grow a bit more as they'd all been chopped off to fit in my little 45L tank. The two Cory have settled in well, but are looking a touch lonely in such a big tank so will be getting a couple more buddies tomorrow, then a couple more next weekend. The filter had already been running in my old tank, so hopefully that will smooth out the change over. Some (crappy) photos of initial setup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Good start! A dark background would be a big improvement IMO, would hide those cords and make the big spraybar look a lot less obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiGal77 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Yea definitely need to organise a background. I tried dark on my old tank, but as I have no lighting it just made everything dull. Medium blue seemed to work well and brought out the sand and plant colours nicely - will pick up a couple more sheets next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camtang Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 I like! Be good to see in a few more months when the stems all start to bulk up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiGal77 Posted June 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Yea I'm looking forward to that. There's a bunch of wisteria behind the driftwood too, which I'm hoping will grow up and fill in that section and some twisted val behind the hygro. Picking up some Xmas moss soon and got some baby Java fern growing too. Should be looking pretty full in a couple of months hopefully!
